City Barbeque has been serving up authentic, competition-quality barbecue for 25 years, starting in central Ohio and growing to over 70 locations across 10 states. Known for smoking meats low and slow over local hickory wood, the brand pairs its irresistible dishes with real backyard hospitality.

A Smokin’ Process

Some days City Barbeque is smoking up to 400 pounds of brisket in a day depending and smoked their brisket and pork twice daily, three times for their smaller meats. They even have staff trained specifically in cutting their meats– AKA “their boards guy.” We like that. 

New Limited-Time Menu Offerings

While they do have core menu items and sides made fresh in-house daily, City BBQ is always looking for ways to spice things up. 

This season, City Barbeque has introduced new limited-time menu items available through December 17th:

  • Brisket Chili Fritos Pie: House-made brisket chili, Fritos®, cheese, and toppings for a hearty bite.
  • Fritos Sausage Sandwich: Jalapeño cheddar sausage, queso, Fritos®, and BBQ sauce make this sandwich unforgettable.
  • Brisket Chili: A rich chili featuring award-winning brisket and black beans, available through February 25th.

The returning fan-favorite Jalapeño Cheddar Sausage—spicy pork sausage smoked on-site—is available by weight or in a sandwich on Texas toast. (Ya’ll, this thing is bringing out my southern roots and gets a “heck ya” from me. Grandpa would be proud.)

Easy Hosting with Party Packs

And don’t forget about their catering and party packs. “We do anything from 10 to thousands of people,” says City Barbeque. The Party Packs are perfect for a quick, but delicious dinner at home or to feed the whole team after practice. City Barbeque’s Party Packs are a convenient catering alternative for gatherings, feeding groups of 4–24. Each pack starts with two meats, two sides, buns, and sauce, with sizes scaling to group needs. Essentials like plates and utensils are included upon request, making hosting easy.

Catering for Any Occasion

Consider their catering services for larger events. City Barbeque caters for all events, offering options like box lunches, barbeque spreads, full-service buffets, and action stations such as s’mores or mac & cheese bars. For a unique touch, they even provide whole smoked hogs.

With a mission to create happiness through authentic barbecue, City Barbeque is committed to quality, preparing meats and sides fresh daily. Visit one of their locations to enjoy their smoky goodness this season.
